This musical egg is reminiscent of the eggs crafted by Peter Carl Fabergé from 1885-1917, and plays The Nutcracker Suite March from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite on an 18-note, key-wound musical movement. Hidden inside the egg is a handpainted pewter nutcracker centerpiece (non-rotating). The egg is crafted of lustrous, triple-fired porcelain decorated with details including raised relief, 22 karat gold accents, and 100 hand-set faux jewels and Swarovski crystals. The base of the egg has an artwork panorama in the Russian Palekh black-lacquer technique by Master Natalia Zaitseva and depicts Herr Drosselmeyer revealing the Nutcracker to Clara for the first time. Each egg is numbered and includes a certificate of authenticity. 6 1/2" H x 3" W. (11 oz.)

This item is a Christmas gift for my niece that loves the Nutcracker.I am extremely impressed by the outstanding quality and workmanship. I generally dislike ordering this type of gifts from a catalog but I am more than satisfied with it.

This was going to be X-Mas present for my BFF as her extensive nutcracker collection perished in the massive fire that destroyed her home this past January. The quality of this nutcracker will be a poor substitute.

This is a gift for my granddaughter and Ihave not taken it out of the box. I will haveto wait until Christmas to tell you if it worksproperly. She is Clara in the Nutcracker and Iwanted something for her to remember this wonderful experience.

The beauty and clarity of the different scenes from the Nutcracker Ballet, which were painted on the egg added to the surprise my wife had when she opened it. Once she realized it was a music box, and opened the egg to reveal a nutcracker, her oohs and ahhs let me know I had gotten her the perfect gift.
